SERVERS RULES
ARK SURVIVAL EVOLVED
SERVER RULES
1 - No griefing. We have zero tolerance for griefers. There is a difference between friendly PVP and being an asshole. Always be on the correct side of that dividing line.
2 - No trolling. If you are being deliberately unfriendly to someone, you will probably get into trouble.
3 - No inside raids. No joining tribes just to sabotage them from within.
4 - No cheats or hacking.
5 - No glitching or glitch exploits. If you have doubt, ask an admin.
6 - No blocking resource rich areas. Just don't build there. If you need fast and easy access to a resource-rich area, place an awesome teleporter pad nearby - this requires no foundation.
7 - No blocking or building within important caves. Again, place a teleporter pad if you need access to important stuff. Teleporter pads are awesome.
8 - Do not obstruct beacons or loot crates with your builds.
9 - Do not block important creature spawns with your builds. Creature spawns count as a resource. See rule #6.
10 - This is a roleplaying server. You are expected to roleplay as something. Have a basic backstory for your character, and give your character a bit of personality. Your character should have reasons for their actions and behavior.
11 - English is the official language of the SkyArk network. You will be required to speak/type english in-game and on the discord server, and your in-game name must be composed of english characters.
12 - Do not park tamed dinosaurs within community center areas for extended periods of time.
13 - Unlocked crafting stations exist in the community center, for public use. Stealing others' materials from these structures is generally discouraged, but not explicitly illegal. (Troll/griefer-like behavior will still be prosecuted, see rules 1 and 2). It is recommended that players build their own secure & lockable crafting stations in the long run.
14 - Structure cleanup is everyone's responsibility. If you get raided, either rebuild or demolish. The Structure Saver mod makes this very easy.
15 - Structure clutter reduction and lag reduction is everyone's responsibility. Do not overbuild. Do not build huge. Tribes are allowed to build 1 main base, 1 secondary base, 1 RP structure, and 1 temporary structure (such as a taming trap or raid base). Each player in a tribe may also build an additional secondary base and RP structure. Exceptions to these building restrictions may be granted on a case-by-case basis, by admins.
16 - RP structures are special-case buildings, transported to the community RP town on the hub server (via the structure saver mod). Players are permitted to have one locked S+ small storage box inside an RP building, and are also allowed to lock additional inventories containing only fuel, spoilable food items, and crop plots. Beyond those exceptions, RP structures are not allowed to have locked inventories, locked doors, or inaccessible areas. On a case-by-case basis, RP structures may be approved outside the physical confines of the community RP town.
17 - Building interesting structures is everyone's responsibility. Please refrain from building bases that are boring cubes or rectangles. Be creative with your geometry.
18 - No killing on sight. Tranquilizing or knocking out players is generally more permissible. Open PvP is allowed, but it must be announced first. Roleplaying is the priority in all PvP.
19 - Taking prisoners is permissible, so long as you roleplay with them, and as long as you do not violate rules 1 and 2. Do not log off while you have captive players.
20 - PvP is not permitted within 15 foundations of any player base, except during a raid or with prisoners in/near a base.
21 - Do not install traps or trap-like systems further than 15 foundations away from any of your bases.
22 - Before you are able to initiate a raid, or participate in a raid as a third-party, your tribe must first build an RP structure. Admins will maintain a list of all RP structures that currently exist on the server. Once you have built an RP structure, please contact the admins.
23 - Before you initiate a raid, you should declare it in the ark-pvp-threats channel. This is first and foremost a roleplaying server, so use the channel and generate some roleplay with your enemies.
24 - No excessive damage to bases. Raiding should focus purely upon getting inside a base and taking loot, never structure damage maximization. Going in through a wall at an unexpected angle instead of through the front door is fine. Destroying any substantial part of a base to do it is NOT fine. You are never, ever, under any circumstances, allowed to level or foundation-wipe the enemy.
25 - Do not despawn loot during a raid. Do not allow loot to despawn through inaction during a raid. Take what you want. Leave what you don't. You are not allowed to empty every single item from an enemy base.
26 - Leave beginners alone. Raiding someone who is much weaker than you is not explicitly illegal, but if you do it, you will be held to much higher standards of accountability and fairness (rules 1, 2, 10, 24, and 25).
27 - It is your responsibility to know who you are raiding. Use a spyglass. Check ark-raidprotection before you raid. Raid protected houses CANNOT be raided, under any circumstances. Ignorance is not an excuse.
28 - Tribes may request raid protection, in the ark-raidprotection channel of the SkyArk Discord server. Raid protection may be granted for new players/tribes on a server, or in response to being recently raided, or if a tribe will be AFK & unable to log into the game. Raid protection lasts for 1 week.
29 - A house under raid protection may initiate a raid, but their raid protection will immediately expire when they do. This is not punishment for a rule violation. Houses are allowed to forfeit their raid protection to go and raid things without any penalty, in the event that they do not require the raid protection for the full 1 week duration.
30 - If two tribes are engaged in a raid battle, the defenders have the option to surrender, and grant the attackers access to the loot. PvP and structure damage must terminate, and the defenders must open & unlock doors and inventory-containing structures.
31 - Tribes may request limited raid immunity (LRI), in ark-raidprotection. LRI-approved tribes will receive an invulnerability-zone of fixed size, around a structure of their choice. Structures built outside of this invulnerability-zone enjoy no special protections, and can be raided as normal. LRI tribes are subject to standard non-raid PvP rules.
32 - Tribes with limited raid immunity are not allowed to raid other tribes, or participate in raids as a third party, or store prisoners inside of their invulnerability-zone. Tribes cannot store ammo within online turrets inside their invulnerability-zone.
33 - If you are a victim of people violating the rules, take screenshots and contact an admin. If you lose stuff due to people acting illegally, there is a high probability that the admins will restore it for you. Admins will not take action without proof. Also, if you are caught lying to admins to suit your own agenda, you will be in an enormous amount of trouble.
34- Admins punish people who violate the rules. Punishments may be as mild as a simple warning, or as severe as a permanent ban. Severity is subjective, and the admins make these decisions on a case-by-case basis. Admins are generally lenient in regard to honest mistakes.
35 - If you feel that you have been treated unfairly by an admin, contact SavageCaliber (the community owner) or Erebus Alpha (head admin).

We need players to be able to get back on there feet after a raid not wana quit! During a raid a Clan can surrender. This will result in the removal of all defensive structures Ie.

Look out for worthy opponents and leave beginners ALONE! Everyone deserves a chance to grow. In the event of a Rule Infringement Attacker and Or Defender have to prove violation of the rules above (screenshots of chat logs, and the raid itself are very helpful if not necessary to make it possible for the admins to intervene).In case of violation of the rules there will be several punishments (Warning, 20 minute Kick, Temp Ban Minimum of 72 hours, Perm Ban (Banned Forever!) which will be applied depending on the severity of the Conflict/Rule Infringement.
Admins and Server Owner play just like everyone else and obey all these rules just like everyone else and as such can be raided and can raid you back as well. Admin console will be used for server maintenance and Hosting Server Events Only!

THIS MEANS HAVING A BACK STORY FOR YOUR CHARACTER AND REMAINING IN CHARACTER IN THE CHAT BOX AND VOICE CHAT FOR EXAMPLE IF YOUR ROLPLAYING A SNOBBY DRAGON BORN NAMED DOVAKIN THAT TAMES DRAGONS, YOU SHOULD TAME DRAGONS AND SAY THINGS IN CHAT LIKE " DOVAKIN DIDN'T ASK FOR YOUR HELP WEAKLING BUT THANKS ANYWAY ". IF SOMEONE HELPS YOU, ETC. Stay In Character.

17.) Using The Stun Bow And Stun Arrows against Players and Player Owned Thralls/Creatures is a Automatic Ban! If you want to steal someones Thrall you must do it with a Club! If you are found to be using the Stun Bow on normal Vanilla Conan thralls such as those at most camps named or not you will receive a Strike 3 Strikes from this = 1 week Temp ban from server and all your thralls killed. The Stun Bow is only to be used on Age Of Calamitous Thralls such as the Soldiers at the Warfront and Orc Half Breeds as for once you put enough stats in to strength you will end up killing those Thralls with a Club before knocking em out thats why this Stun bow mod is on the Server It is Too OP to be used on any other thralls as for on AOC thralls it takes a few arrows to knock them out but most vanilla thralls go down in 1-2 hits so DO NOT USE STUN BOW OR ARROWS ON NORMAL CONAN THRALLS This will be very strictly monitored so don't think you'll go un noticed!
18.) Each Clan/Tribe Is Allowed to use 1 Titan/Avatar of any religion per a Week For PvP Purposes!

20.) Do not Leave Wheel Of Pains near or at Thrall Camps, Thrall Caves Etc. Building a small base somewhere closer and having a wheel there so you don't have to lug a thrall all the way back to the other side of the map by your base is fine but Use your common sense and don't build right on top or super close to the Thrall Areas! If you want to build somewhere and there is a small Thrall Bonfire close by as long as you don't have tamed thralls , creatures or buildings close enough to stop the wild thralls from spawning back and other players can safely get to the bonfire to tame those thralls its safe to build there this part only goes for the tiny thrall bonfires that are almost everywhere though.
21.) PVE Players: We allow a few tribes per a server to play as PVE this means they can not engage in PVP in any capacity or those rights will be revoked !

You can Request to be a PVE Tribe in the Discord server under the Conan Raid Protection Channel and A Conan Admin or the Server Network Owner will either approve or deny it. Approved PvE Clans will have the PVE Player Role in the Discord if they don't have the Role in the discord and are claiming there PVE they are not PVE and are pretending feel free to wipe them for us in this case. If You don't get approved you can not be PVE and will be allowed to be attacked and raided as normal.
